Up for auction is an incredible collectors item. A 1990 Mercedes-Benz 500SL which belonged to the very famous actor Jack Nicholson. This was his personal car and he is the only owner on record along with the original title with his signature on it. For the record, Jack Nicholson's real name is John J Nicholson and this is public information even listed on Wikipedia. Therefore that is the name which appears on the title which is pictured below. It was Jack's car and stored in his garage until last year when he sold it to a friend of his which is a collector. Now the car is for sale to the public here on ebay and with NO RESERVE price. It will go to the highest bidder which is also responsible for arranging any shipping or delivery.

The car is in very good condition and is very clean both inside and out. It's always been a California car and has no rust. It has never been in any accidents and still bares the original factory paint. Everything in the car is great working order. No mechanical problems or leaks of any kind. No electrical problems. All of the service is up to date. It does not require any repair. The leather and carpeting in good condition. No holes or rips on the leather or ware and tare on the carpets. The top easily comes off and the process is fully automatic. Once the hardtop is off, the soft top also retracts and closes automatically and is in good working order. No holes or tares anywhere in the soft top and the see-through areas are in pristine condition with no fading, cracking, or misty areas at all. The soft top does not leak or rattle.

Also included in the auction is the hardtop along with the whole hoist mechanism with pulleys and brace which holds the hardtop when it's off the vehicle. It's a great way to store the hard top in your garage so its out of the way and will not get scratched when removing it. It's usually mounted right above where you store the car and can easily be lowered or raised right from or directly back on to the car.

This SL500 has a 5.0 V8 engine. It's fully loaded and has all the options along with some added features. Some of them include an aftermarket audio system with head unit with XM radio and amplifier which is all wired and connected to the head unit with out any visible wires. The tires have plenty of tread on them. The air conditioning and heat both work very well, remote keyless entry and alarm also are functioning properly. No squeaking, rattling, or any kind of noises. It runs quiet and is very responsive with plenty of power and excellent handling.

5 new EVs that make driving fun

Thu, Jan 25 2024

One of the things enthusiasts bellyache about the most is electrification. The noisiest complainers say that EVs will suck the fun out of driving and can’t possibly be as engaging as a roaring gas engine. ItÂ’s undoubtedly true that the noises EVs make are not always as visceral and thrilling, but itÂ’s also true that electrification has ushered in a new era of performance that gas vehicles simply cannot match. WeÂ’ve gathered a list of EVs that donÂ’t suck to drive. We all know by now about Tesla and its Plaid models, which absolutely set the quarter-mile ablaze with their amazing acceleration figures. The vehicles on this list don't come from Tesla. Nor does the list include some highly anticipated performance EVs that will soon hit the market, such as the new 2024 Porsche Macan. This selection may be a bit short on range compared to tamer models, but at the same time, itÂ’s hard to ignore their specs and even harder to ignore the sensation that a full-throttle electric powertrain delivers. LetÂ’s dive in to see five new EVs that make driving fun. Porsche Taycan PorscheÂ’s gas-powered vehicles are among the most exciting on the road, so itÂ’s not surprising to see the automakerÂ’s first electric effort as a home run. The Taycan is available in a staggering number of configurations, ranging from the 375-horsepower base model to the massively powerful Turbo S models with up to 750 horsepower in temporary boost mode. Classic Porsche styling and high-end tech round out the package, making the Taycan one of the most desirable EVs today. That said, the TaycanÂ’s almost $91,000 starting price puts it out of reach for a majority of car buyers, and the prices keep steadily rising along with the performance. It also trades range for performance, as the least powerful variant is the most efficient, returning 242 miles with the extended-range battery. The car can take advantage of fast charging, however, and can recover up to 80 percent of its battery capacity in just over 22 minutes. Â Kia EV6 GT How about a Kia that can out-accelerate many supercars, especially from a few years ago? The EV6 GT comes with two electric motors with a combined 576 horsepower and 545 pound-feet of torque. Its 0-60 mph time lands at just 3.4 seconds, and the EV offers a top speed of 161 mph, making it one serious Korean EV. At the same time, it features the standout styling of the standard model, which gives it a striking curb presence and a futuristic look that is unique among EVs.

Maybach crossover looking more likely, Smart crossover possible

Fri, Apr 24 2015

Mercedes-Benz executives are still making positive noises about the chances of a Mercedes-Maybach SUV. Following Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche's answer of "most likely" at the Geneva Motor Show, Mercedes Cars head of sales and marketing Ola Kallenius told Autocar that a Maybach SUV based on the next-generation GLS is "the more likely scenario." That's the same Kallenius that told Automotive News just last November that "we have no plans for it [a Maybach SUV]." It's a subtle shift, to be sure, but it's still a shift. The GLS – introduced as the latest-generation GL in 2013 Â– is still undergoing testing for its its mid-cycle refresh, so a Maybach version is a few years off. That would, coincidentally, give Mercedes time to see how the other super-luxe entrants are faring, and prepare its charge accordingly. Autocar expects that should it be built, it will come when the GLS shifts to the S-Class platform and most likely get the twin-turbo V12 from the Mercdes-Maybach S600 sedan, although the company's 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 is possible if there are strong intentions for the Chinese market. Also on Stuttgart's agenda of dreams is a Smart crossover, according to the report. It could be Smart's best chance at profitably extending the range, based on the mania for tiny utes, and that would help both Daimler and the ForTwo's Renault Twingo sibling. It sounds like this is a ways off, though, due to coming up with an engineering solution for the Smart's engine packaging. Related Video:
